I am pleased to be here today with my Guest Designer project for Retro Rubber Challenge #166. The challenge is to create something that is inspired by the photo below.
At Retro Rubber, the idea is to give old stamps some love. Use a stamp older than a year and you must include the age (or approximate age) of the stamp in your blog post.
When I saw the inspiration photo, I immediately thought of Impression Obsession's Flower Pitchers wood mounted rubber stamp that has been in my stash for at least 10 years. I stamped it on Neenah Solar White 80# card stock, colored it with Copics, and added Wink Of Stella to the flowers. I die cut the image with Pinkfresh Studio's Braided Tag die. I used Neeneh Solar White 110# card stock for my card base, and stenciled it with Pink Posh's Jungle Background stencil. I stamped a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp's Best Friend Ever stamp set with VersaFine Onyx Black ink, and clear embossed it. I adhered the die cut with the floral image to the card bas and my card was complete.
Please head over to the Retro Rubber Challenge Blog and see how the Design Team interpreted the inspiration photo. Be inspired, let your creative juices flow, and come play!

What a beautiful background you have stenciled. I love the neutral color that allows the flowers to really pop. Thanks so much for joining us this week at Little Red Wagon!
A gorgeous card Helen. Pullling out our old stamps is always fun. Thanks for joining us at Watercooler Wednesday Challenge.
Thank you for joining us as Guest Designer. I love your finely coloured jug of flowers. The stencilled background adds a whole extra layer of loveliness.
Stephanie, I think you made a wonderful choice of stamps to use - and colored it beautifully, too!
